Trump's smartphone, not "made in the USA" after all

Initially plastered with "made in the USA" labels, the Trump Organization's T1 smartphone website strangely no longer displays any.

Some time ago, the Trump Organization proudly announced the launch of the Trump Mobile network and the T1 smartphone, which was billed as "made in the USA."

Except that it only took a few hours for specialized journalists to reveal that the device was nothing more than a Chinese model, painted gold and flanked by a beautiful American flag. And strangely, a few days later, the allusions to manufacturing in the USA were removed from the smartphone's promotional website.

The patriotic vocabulary remains, however, even if it is no longer confusing. For example, the device's slogan is "Premium performance." Proudly American,” and the description includes a small “designed with American values in mind.” Other “fun” changes include the screen size, originally announced as 6.78” now being reduced to 6.25”, the announced 12GB RAM is no longer displayed on the site, and the promised September release date has become “later this year.” All for $499. In short, nothing that will change the minds of those who are convinced that politics and truth don’t mix.
